[Q] Opinion on GenericGinger v2

Has anyone used this ROM
simply-android.com/discussion/1763/rom-genericginger-2.0-for-sidekick-4g-t-mobile-updated-120911/p1
I've been going through ROMs every few days or so trying to find one i like and i flashed this one today. I'm not sure how i feel about its speed, i guess i was just curious if anyone else has tried it and what they thought

Wow, didn't even know these ROMs existed

Probably the smoothest rom out there right now.

Well I just flashed this ROM, thank god I've been itching to test another ROM since the developer drought, I have to admit, this is amazing, so far, I can change my lock screen, this is very smooth and amazingly 2.3.5 like. More amazing features that I have found but I must say, very worth flashing.

yeah its not ginger clone it uses a lot of the framework of overdose it seems. I actually would like to get gingerclone going again but the links are broken.

Yeah, this rom is pretty smooth. I haven't noticed anything buggy on it yet.
Only thing I noticed is that it doesn't have a Task Manager.

Yes I do, i've been running it since early yesterday.

have you noticed the icons not loading when you resume from a lock, like a memory issue or something of that sort? Sometimes when i switch between aps the homescreen will be empty and the phone lags. it is just strange ive never seen it before

Stock KJ2 does that, so I don't think it's really a rom issue per se. Seems like it doesn't keep the launcher layout in memory during high usage or something.

Yea one of our phones main problems is a severe lack of RAM, so the launcher usually has a hard time staying open when something else is bugging out the memory.
Sent from the phone everyone has forgotten about!

You can try using something like launcher pro and setting it to keep in memory, not necessairly guaranteeing that won't have other problems though...

Use the v6 supercharged script, this will lock your home screen in memory and take care of that issue entirely

How do I run that script?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

Try going to this website: www.google.com, it's something called a "search engine" then type "v6 supercharger XDA" in the box and see what happens!!! It's a really useful website for finding things!!!
I use aggressive 1 settings, haven't felt a need to use the others

Haha alright

I've been using this rom now for a few days and its by far the best rom (as of right now) out there and I haven't been using any kind of task manager either and it is still smoother and speedier then any rom out
P.s. no disrespect to all of the great devs out there workin on are phone!
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

Please know that ROM is essentially my gingerclone ROM with all the same asop apps and framework as well (with changes of course). I'm sure its updated to KJ2 with lockscreen mod by now but the poster of the ROM didn't even bother to change the OP format from my GC post. I'm not saying don't use his ROM.. if you like it do so, I'm jus speaking up because he didn't properly credit me or Sduvick. He's on XDA and used to post on the forums so idk why didn't he say something about it.

Teddy I thought so, I've used all of your roms. I can't wait for your next release. It also uses your kernal. I'm just a flashaholic, love changin it up every time I can
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

So is teddy really doing a new ROM? This would be fantastic news. Maybe have roboto as font and use ics icons?
And is it not possible with any of these roms to do the whole notification drop-down clearing of messages? Is that something that id definitely need ics for?

well all this cm7.0.2 and they are all the same lol well the OS itself so you can see their features and it'll be the same the only thing that changes from phone to phone is the proprietary parts and the kernel

so update guys i fixed the call issue but that fix breaks wifi so i might release a wifi-less build and have named cm7 as alpha for now cus of wifi
Edit:
Fixed wifi fixed calling lol uploading new build

thanks so much gonna try it now.. You are a true developer. Thanks

Only thing I am waiting on is camera but I won't ask the dreaded question. then it will likely be my daily driver until an ics build.

actually just flashed cm7 on blaze again and both sdcard/emmc work fine so im not sure what the problem you're having.

Anyone else having issues with the home button? After flashing this ROM the home button wouldn't respond..other than that great ROM

Finally got all set up and ran this since the update, tried to look at everything performance wise. There is a short list of minor issues, most of them really don't effect my day to day usage.
Runs fantastic with zero force closes and great screen resolution
Battery holds up well....wi-fi doesn't sleep.....will eat up battery life if not monitored. I manually disable GPS as well out of habit.
No haptic feedback but hey....I don't use it. tried every control option and fixed permissions.
SD card issue is likely formatting. Doesn't like my 64gb card but my 32gb card is fine. Will attempt to reformat and advise
Native music players won't run FLAC files. Neither will google play. Been using Jet Audio FLAC works great so no major problem.
Installed Beats audio which works very well.
DSP....no issues no force closes...seems top improve call quality using the speaker setting to boost the high end...
Set up V6 super charger.....results unclear....may be effecting battery life. Will advise.
All programs seem to run normally, calendar, texting etc.
You have KANGED well!

Im looking for a new daily driver. This is looking great. But i need camera, so ill wait it out.
Thanks!

Haptic feedback is a known issue that I mentioned before.
As for wifi have u checked settings to see if its set to sleep when screen is off?
Never played flac files.
As for supercharger script if its not included in the rom and you add on top I won't troubleshoot as idk what problems those scripts cause. So everything rom wise I will but if you add other things/mods I won't
And camera is a hard issue most cm7 first builds come with dozens of errors this one only has 2, vibration(which I fixed already) and camera

I'm going to bust your chops a little.....all in fun you know.....but seriously can we usae this forum to share what we find and help each other as well? I'm easy I will type somewhere else.
Been crack flashing since day one. Probably never had a perfect ROM yet....isn't that why we're all here? Since there isn't many posts I thought I'd share a little. I think there is more than one developer hyping the V6 out there. I was interested in seeing if it would help...if not I'll reload.
You know what they say....those who can't develop ...DONATE (Everybody should)
Yes Wi -Fi ....will try something to see if I can get it working right.
Camera I didn't mention .....it's not working by the way........
FLAC....do you love music? There is a lot most people don't know about FLAC....I'll leave you with this since you're probably mad at me./
Typical AAC (Apple Audio file) 192kb maybe 256kb compressed and lossy
My FLACS....Uncompressed 1411kb
Which one would you listen too given the choice?

Have all those issues been resolved?

don't know about data loss, i float back and forth between 3g and 4g seeing as i'm in a ****ty area, but there's still no app drawer and no way to sort automatically (at least no way to sort that i've seen, but no app drawer for sure)

Are the same issues present as in the CM10 builds? I am assuming they are.

Can't wait for it to mature a little bit more before trying it out. I am a getting a little too old to flash new roms!

I hope this isn't a dumb question but why would one want to use miui if they weren't going to use the miui launcher? Does the is bringing other things to the table?
Sorry haven't really used miui much.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

There are tons of features in MIUI besides the launcher, I'd suggest you take a look at http://en.miui.com/
Just off the top of my head, things MIUI has that no other rom can match - theming, backup/restore, contacts/sms/dialer, speed, the music player, toggles etc.
I used to swear by MIUI when I had my Evo 4G, by far the most unique and best rom on Android, it replaces so many apps you need to install. I just hope it becomes stable for ICS/JB soon.

exactly...well stated!

So far I'm finding this miui ROM has better 4g data capabilities than any cm ROM that I've tried. I've tested numerous ROMs in an area that has shifting 3/4g and this miui build has the same 4g strength as my Beans tw ROM.

Which Miui build are you guys having the best luck with?

Yes please do tell..... the rom for data switching that I've tested so far has been LiquidSmooth which I'm still using because it gives me waaaaaayyyyy better service than any TW rom. I would love to know which MIUI rom that y'all are using that has such good data switching because the ones ive used are OK but no where near as good as Liquid.

What beast is saying is that if you guys aren't going to help with the kernel, nagging him about its issues makes you look like entitled children. (no offense to anyone here)
He is not being paid to do any of this. So when you say stuff like "wifi isn't working still??" it makes you come off as entitled and demanding.

Make sure you do a factory reset and wipe the /system partition too before you reflash to ensure that anything left over from the previous rom is gone.

Thread Cleaned,
Folks, the OP is here to get your assistance in the development and furthering of such development. Posting arguments about feelings getting hurt is a colossal waste of time and is a huge distraction.
If your feelings are hurt by what is said in the posts,, then there isn't much to do that move on to something else.
"Being respectful is paramount" -- Contribute or move on. Any more childish stuff and I will close thread.

What do you mean recording works but playback is the issue? I just want to know if I can install a program to record my calls with this rom. Stock rom it would record 2-way calls. With cynogen9 it doesn't record anything they are blank files.

Walkman should work if you just install it through PMR. Dark GApps... I wouldn't trust unless you found dark SlimGApps. Regular GApps would likely cause similar issues with weird bloat and random FCs.

[Q] Not sure where to post this - re, ParanoidAndroid Rom

Not sure if this is the right forum to ask this, but I figured it was best as this is a Q/A/help type of question. I have a vzw gs3, and played with a couple of roms a while back, but ended up going back to stock. Lately I've been reading about PA, and would like to try it out, but I'm confused as to what I need to download. If I click on the 'ROMS' link above, then I see a post that leads to alpha and beta versions of PA, but if I go into the 'Original Android Development' sub forum, I see a completely different set of options. So, which is the right one to use? Does anyone know how battery life is on an AOSP rom vs. stock?
Thanks,

Try PAC man rom ...its a mix of Cyanogen Parinoid and AOKP

How's the battery life? currently on stock and if i'm not at work, i can get almost 2 days between charges. On a normal day, I unplug at 6:30am and by 10:30pm am usually around 35-45%.
I wasn't a fan of AOKP; how much of that is integrated into it?

How's the battery life? currently on stock and if i'm not at work, i can get almost 2 days between charges. On a normal day, I unplug at 6:30am and by 10:30pm am usually around 35-45%.
I wasn't a fan of AOKP; how much of that is integrated into it?
Thanks,

Its basically a lot of the tweaks from AOKP, and the tweaks from PA all built on cm. Its a lot, but in a way that's not like "oh this is just AOKP with hybrid"

The battery life for me is OK. I can get 28 to 30 hours medium usage and I use greenify. Honestly it is one best ROMs I have been on...and I've flashed a lot

You can try it and always go back if you don't like it. That's one of the great joys of being rooted

Yes, that is a benefit of being rooted. I do tend to have issues when going back to my nandroid - I have to re-setup switftkey and a few other apps. It's odd, but not a big deal. I did try them both over the weekend, and I liked PA better than PAC, but had issues with both that made me go back to stock for now. Some things were functionality issues - the AOSP calendar doesn't show the event when on month view, I couldn't get my custom notification sounds to work or my alarm sound (this is a biggie as I use my phone to wake me up every morning, and I've found that I tend to sleep through most alarm sounds, but have the Piezzo alarm sound from my droid x and that wakes me up right away).
Any suggestions on what I could try? I really liked how fast my phone was after having flashed to something else, but the calendar, alarm sound and notification sounds are a necessity for me. I also had issues with adding my work email to it as well - I could add the account, but it would never download my email, nor sync my calendar - also deal breakers for me.
Thanks
